Elliptic Integrals by Harris Hancock

Description:Elliptic integrals originally arose in connection with the problem of giving the arc length of an ellipse. The author limits the monograph to what is known as the Legendre-Jacobi theory. He confines the discussion almost entirely to what is known as the elliptic integrals of the first and second kinds.
